When Jesus came to Simon Peter, Peter said to him, "Lord, are you going to wash my feet?" Jesus replied, "You don't understand now what I am doing, but someday you will." "No," Peter protested, "you will never ever wash my feet!" Jesus replied, "Unless I wash you, you won't belong to me." Simon Peter exclaimed, "Then wash my hands and head as well, Lord, not just my feet!"

โ€”John 13:6-9 NLT

Key Thought


Peter hasn't learned the lesson. Jesus wants his disciples to demonstrate their faith and love. Talk is cheap. Peter is a big talker. Even in this moment of Jesus' example and sacrifice, Peter wants to talk big. Jesus, however, stoops low and washes Peter's feet, too. Peter does not understand at that moment, but he will later and for the rest of his life. He will then live to demonstrate his faith and loyalty and not just talk about it!

Today's Prayer


Lord God, please forgive me when my deeds don't match up to my worship words. I know that kind of hypocrisy is revolting to you. I know that it turns my stomach when I recognize my own hypocrisy. So, dear Father, I ask that more than forgiving me, please also help me become the person I say that I am and that I want to be. Humble me gently until I am like Jesus, in whose name I pray. Amen.
